The composer
writes:On March 11th 2011
a massive 9.0- magnitude
earthquake occurred off
the coast of
north-eastern Japan.I'm
writing these programme
notes barely a week later
and the death toll caused
by the quake and
resulting tsunami already
exceeds 6000, with
thousands of people still
unaccounted for. I have
many friends associated
with many bands
throughout Japan and one
of these, Yutaka Nishida,
suggested I write a piece
to raise money to help
those affected by the
disaster. I was
immediately attracted by
the idea and have
arranged Cantilena (a
brass band piece recently
commissioned by the
Grenland International
Brass Festival, Norway)
for wind band, giving it
a new title tohonour my
friends in the Land of
the Rising Sun.I will be
donating royalties from
this piece to the
Japanese Red Cross
Society Emergency Relief
Fund and am delighted to
say that my distributors,
De Haske, who will
generously also donate
all net profits from
sales of this piece, have
pledged a substantial
advance payment to the
Red Cross so that what
little help this project
generates can be
immediate.It is my
sincere wish that this
'Band Aid' project will
allow wind bands around
the world support the
people of Japan, where
bands are a way of life
for many, in this
difficult time.Philip
Sparke
De
componist schrijft:Op 11
maart 2011 vond er vlak
bij de noordkust van
Japan een enorme
aardbeving - 9.0 op de
schaal van Richter -
plaats.Ik maak deze
werkbeschrijving
nauwelijks een week later
en het aantal doden dat
de aardbevingen de
daaropvolgende tsunami
hebben geëist, komt al
uit boven de 6000,
terwijl er nog steeds
duizenden mensen worden
vermist.Ik heb veel
vrienden die met orkesten
in heel Japan werken, en
een van hen, Yutaka
Nishida, steldevoor dat
ik een stuk zou schrijven
om geld bij elkaar te
krijgen voor hulp aan de
slachtoffers van de ramp.
Ik vond het meteen een
goed idee en ik heb
vervolgens Cantilena (
een brassbandwerk dat ik
recentelijk heb
gecomponeerd voorhet
Grenland International
Brass festival in
Noorwegen) gearrangeerd
voor harmonieorkest en er
een nieuwe titel aan
gegeven, als eerbewijs
aan mijn vrienden in het
land van de rijzende
zon.De royalty's die ik
voor dit werk krijg,zal
ik doneren aan het
Japanse noodhulpfonds van
het Rode Kruis, en ik ben
heel blij dat mijn
distributeur, De Haske,
die eveneens alle
nettowinst op dit werk
zal doneren, bereid is
alvast een grote
vooruitbetaling te doen
aanhet Rode Kruis, zodat
de hulp die uit dit
project voortkomt, hoe
bescheiden wellicht ook,
onmiddellijk in gang
gezet kan worden.Ik hoop
oprecht dat dit 'Band
Aid-project' het
blaasorkesten wereldwijd
mogelijk maakt de mensen
in Japante steunen - een
land waar blaasmuziek
voor velen een manier van
leven is.
Der
Komponist schreibt
über sein Stück:Am
11. März 2011
ereignete sich ein
Erdbeben der Stärke
9,0 vor der
nordöstlichen Küste
Japans.Diese
Werkbeschreibung schreibe
ich nur eine Woche
später. Die Zahl der
Todesopfer des Erdbebens
und des dadurch
ausgelösten Tsunamis
überschreitet bereits
die 6000, wobei noch
tausende Menschen als
vermisst gelten.Ich habe
zahlreiche Freunde in
Japan, die mit vielen
Blasorchestern im ganzen
Land verbunden sind.
Einer dieser Freunde,
Yutaka Nishida, schlug
mir vor, ein Stück zu
schreiben, um mit dem
Erlös den von der
Katastrophe betroffenen
Menschen zu helfen. Ich
war gleich begeistert von
dieser Idee und habe
daraufhin
Cantilena(ein
Brass-Band-Stück, das
ich jüngst für das
Grenland International
Brass Festival in
Norwegen komponierte)
für Blasorchester
bearbeitet und ihm zu
Ehren meiner Freunde im
Land der aufgehenden
Sonne einen neuen Titel
gegeben.Ich werde meine
Tantiemen für dieses
Stück dem Hilfsfonds
des Japanischen Roten
Kreuzes spenden. Ich bin
auch sehr froh, dass mein
Verlag De Haske, der
ebenfalls alle Erlöse
aus diesem Stück
spenden wird, dem Roten
Kreuz bereits im Voraus
eine bedeutende Summe
geschickt hat, damit der
kleine Beitrag, den
dieses Projekt beitragen
kann, sofort ankommt.Es
ist mein inniger Wunsch,
dass dieses Band
Aid“-Projekt
Blasorchestern auf der
ganzen Welt
ermöglichen wird, den
Menschen in Japan zu
helfen, wo Blasorchester
in dieser schweren Zeit
für viele ein Weg
sind, das Leben aufrecht
zu erhalten.“Philip

La
recente tragedia del
Giappone, messo in
ginocchio dal terremoto,
ha spinto Philip Sparke a
comporre The Sun Will
Rise Again (Il sole

messaggio di solidariet
al popolo nipponico, ma
anche un aiuto concreto:
gli introiti saranno
interamente devoluti, sia

Following a
celebrated series of wind
ensemble tone poems about
national parks in the
American West, Dan
Welcher’s Upriver
celebrates the Lewis &
Clark Expedition from the
Missouri River to
Oregon’s Columbia
Gorge, following the
Louisiana Purchase of
1803. Welcher’s
imaginative textures and
inventiveness are freshly
modern, evoking our
American heritage,
including references to
Shenandoah and other folk
songs known to have been
sung on the expedition.
For advanced players.
Duration:
14’. In 1803,
President Thomas
Jefferson sent Meriwether
Lewis and William
Clark’s Corps of
Discovery to find a water
route to the Pacific and
explore the uncharted
West. He believed woolly
mammoths, erupting
volcanoes, and mountains
of pure salt awaited
them. What they found was
no less mind-boggling:
some 300 species unknown
to science, nearly 50
Indian tribes, and the
Rockies.Ihave been a
student of the Lewis and
Clark expedition, which
Thomas Jefferson called
the “Voyage of
Discovery,†for as
long as I can remember.
This astonishing journey,
lasting more than
two-and-a-half years,
began and ended in St.
Louis, Missouri —
and took the travelers up
more than a few rivers in
their quest to find the
Northwest Passage to the
Pacific Ocean. In an age
without speedy
communication, this was
akin to space travel out
of radio range in our own
time: no one knew if,
indeed, the party had
even survived the voyage
for more than a year.
Most of them were
soldiers. A few were
French-Canadian voyageurs
— hired trappers
and explorers, who were
fluent in French (spoken
extensively in the
region, due to earlier
explorers from France)
and in some of the Indian
languages they might
encounter. One of the
voyageurs, a man named
Pierre Cruzatte, also
happened to be a
better-than-average
fiddle player. In many
respects, the travelers
were completely on their
own for supplies and
survival, yet,
incredibly, only one of
them died during the
voyage. Jefferson had
outfitted them with food,
weapons, medicine, and
clothing — and
along with other
trinkets, a box of 200
jaw harps to be used in
trading with the Indians.
Their trip was long,
perilous to the point of
near catastrophe, and
arduous. The dream of a
Northwest Passage proved
ephemeral, but the
northwestern quarter of
the continent had finally
been explored, mapped,
and described to an
anxious world. When the
party returned to St.
Louis in 1806, and with
the Louisiana Purchase
now part of the United
States, they were greeted
as national heroes.Ihave
written a sizeable number
of works for wind
ensemble that draw their
inspiration from the
monumental spaces found
in the American West.
Four of them (Arches, The
Yellowstone Fires,
Glacier, and Zion) take
their names, and in large
part their being, from
actual national parks in
Utah, Wyoming, and
Montana. But Upriver,
although it found its
voice (and its finale) in
the magnificent Columbia
Gorge in Oregon, is about
a much larger region.
This piece, like its
brother works about the
national parks,
doesn’t try to
tell a story. Instead, it
captures the flavor of a
certain time, and of a
grand adventure. Cast in
one continuous movement
and lasting close to
fourteen minutes, the
piece falls into several
subsections, each with
its own heading: The
Dream (in which
Jefferson’s vision
of a vast expanse of
western land is opened);
The Promise, a chorale
that re-appears several
times in the course of
the piece and represents
the seriousness of the
presidential mission; The
River; The Voyageurs; The
River II ; Death and
Disappointment; Return to
the Voyage; and The River
III .The music includes
several quoted melodies,
one of which is familiar
to everyone as the
ultimate “river
song,†and which
becomes the
through-stream of the
work. All of the quoted
tunes were either sung by
the men on the voyage, or
played by
Cruzatte’s fiddle.
From various journals and
diaries, we know the men
found enjoyment and
solace in music, and
almost every night
encampment had at least a
bit of music in it. In
addition to Cruzatte,
there were two other
members of the party who
played the fiddle, and
others made do with
singing, or playing upon
sticks, bones, the
ever-present jaw harps,
and boat horns. From
Lewis’ journals, I
found all the tunes used
in Upriver: Shenandoah
(still popular after more
than 200 years),
V’la bon vent,
Soldier’s Joy,
Johnny Has Gone for a
Soldier, Come Ye Sinners
Poor and Needy (a hymn
sung to the tune
“Beech
Springâ€) and
Fisher’s Hornpipe.
The work follows an
emotional journey: not
necessarily step-by-step
with the Voyage of
Discovery heroes, but a
kind of grand arch.
Beginning in the mists of
history and myth,
traversing peaks and
valleys both real and
emotional (and a solemn
funeral scene), finding
help from native people,
and recalling their zeal
upon finding the one
great river that will, in
fact, take them to the
Pacific. When the men
finally roar through the
Columbia Gorge in their
boats (a feat that even
the Indians had not
attempted), the
magnificent river
combines its theme with
the chorale of
Jefferson’s
Promise. The Dream is
fulfilled: not quite the
one Jefferson had
imagined (there is no
navigable water passage
from the Missouri to the
Pacific), but the dream
of a continental
destiny.

The
hymn Nun ruhen alle
Walder (Now All Forests
Rest), arranged by J.S.
Bach (No. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, from
Cantata BWV 13), is a
guiding light throughout
this four-movement
composition. Pütz
wrote this work as a
musical outcry against
the wilful, profit-driven
destruction of our
environment. When Bach
used the word ruhen (to
rest) over 350 years ago,
it probably had a
different nuance from the
meaning it has today. At
the beginning of the 21st
century - the so-called
age of progress - nun
ruhen alle Walder should
mean now all forests die
. Massive
industrialization and
globalization, coupled
with pure greed,
corruption, political
scandals, an
ever-wideninggap between
the rich and poor, and
other such senseless
human actions, are
pushing our blue planet
closer and closer to the
point of no return. This
work is not intended to
be a ranting accusation.
It should remind us of
the beauty and harmony
that can exist all around
us in nature, if we take
care of it. Pütz
hopes that this will, one
day, help put a greater
emphasis on humanity's
survival, and coexistence
with nature rather than
the exploitation
described earlier. All
four texts were created
by Australian poet Graeme
King, whose works were
discovered by Pütz,
by chance on the
internet. Pütz was
especially captivated by
King's clarity, and
intrigued by the
possibilities of adapting
and melding the strong
rhythmical structure of
King's writing with his
own musical language. The
four movements are as
follows: 1. Tears of
Nature 2. Grrrevolution
3. Stand up! 4. Tomorrow
The world premiere of
Four Earth Songs took
place on 7 July 2009 at
the 14th WASBE-Conference
in Cincinnati (USA). This
work is dedicated in
friendship to Jouke
Hoekstra, conductor, and
the Frysk Fanfare Orkest
(the Frisian
Fanfare-Orchestra).
De hymne Nun
ruhen alle Walder,
gearrangeerd door J.S.
Bach (nr. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, uit cantate
BWV 13), is de leidraad
in deze vierdelige
compositie. Putz schreef
het werk als een muzikaal
protest tegen de
moedwillige,op winstbejag
gebaseerde vernietiging
van ons milieu. Toen Bach
het woord 'ruhen'
(rusten) meer dan 350
jaar geleden gebruikte,
lag er waarschijnlijk een
andere nuance in dan
tegenwoordig. Aan het
begin van de 21e eeuw -
dezogenaamde eeuw van de
vooruitgang - zou 'nun
ruhen alle Walder' zelfs
kunnen betekenen: 'nu
sterven alle bossen'. De
grootschalige
industrialisatie en
globalisering, in
combinatie met pure
hebzucht, corruptie,
politieke schandalen,een
groeiende kloof tussen
arm en rijk, en andere
dwaze menselijke
verrichtingen, brengen
onze blauwe planeet
steeds verder in de
problemen, tot er
misschien geen weg terug
meer is. Dit werk is niet
bedoeld als een
beschuldigendetirade. Het
moet ons wijzen op de
schoonheid en harmonie
die in de natuur om ons
heen kan bestaan, als we
er goed voor zorgen. Putz
hoopt dat er op een dag
meer nadruk gelegd zal
worden op het overleven
van de mensheid
invreedzame co-existentie
met de natuur, zonder de
eerdergenoemde
uitbuiting. Alle vier de
teksten zijn geschreven
door de Australische
dichter Graeme King,
wiens werk Putz bij
toeval tegenkwam op het
internet. Hij werd
getroffendoor Kings
helderheid en raakte
geintrigeerd door de
mogelijkheid de sterke
ritmische structuur van
Kings teksten om te
zetten in zijn eigen
muzikale taal. De vier
delen zijn de volgende:
1. Tears of Nature 2.
Grrrevolution 3.Stand up!
4. Tomorrow De
wereldpremiere van Four

Fryskt Fanfare
Der
Choral Nun ruhen alle
Walder, hier in einer
Bearbeitung von J.S. Bach
(Nr. 6 So sei nun, Seele,
deine aus der Kantate BWV
13), zieht sich wie ein
roter Faden durch diese
viersatzige Komposition,
die als musikalischer
Aufschrei (Anfang!) gegen
die mutwillige,
profitgesteuerte
Zerstorung unserer Umwelt
gedacht ist. Sicher hatte
das Wort ruhen vor
über 350 Jahren,
als der Liedtext
entstand, eine andere
Bedeutung als heute. Zu
Beginn des 21.
Jahrhunderts, im
sogenannten Zeitalter des
Fortschritts,
müsste es leider
wohl eher heissen: Nun
sterben alle Walder...
Massive
Industrialisierung,
Globalisierung, aber auch
Profitgier, Korruption,
politische
Unfahigkeit,krasse
Unterschiede zwischen arm
und reich, und
schlussendlich die
Uneinsichtigkeit des
einzelnen Menschen haben
dazu geführt, dass
der Blaue Planet heute
kurz vor dem Kollaps
steht. Dieses Werk soll
jedoch nicht nur
anklagen, es soll auch
die verbliebenen
Schonheiten unserer Natur
aufzeigen, in der
Hoffnung, dass es einmal
gelingen wird, die
Rettung der Natur und den
Schutz der Umwelt
über die oben
genannten Interessen zu
stellen. Alle vier Texte
stammen aus der Feder des
australischen Dichters
Graeme King, dessen Werk
der Komponist durch einen
glücklichen Zufall
im Internet entdeckte.
Besonders inspirierend
war die Direktheit von
Graemes Aussagen, aber
auch die kraftvolle
Rhythmik seiner Verse mit
den daraus resultierenden
Moglichkeiten der
musikalischen Umsetzung.
Die vier Satze sind wie
folgt
überschrieben: 1.
Tears of Nature 2.
Grrrevolution 3. Stand
up! 4. Tomorrow Die
offizielle
Uraufführung von

7. Juli 2009 statt,

Le
cantique Nun ruhen alle
Walder, dont la ligne
melodique fut reprise par
Jean-Sebastien Bach pour
son choral So sein nun,
Seele, deine (Choral
ndeg6 - Cantate BWV 13),
est le fil conducteur de
cette oeuvre en quatre
mouvements concue comme
un cri contre la
destruction volontaire de
la nature pour le profit.
Plus de trois siecles
nous separent du temps de
Bach. Si les mots sont
restes les memes, leur
sens primitif connait
cependant quelques
nuances. Ainsi, au XXIe
siecle - considere comme
le << siecle du progres
>>, il conviendrait de
traduire Nun ruhen alle
Walder (les forets se
reposent ) par Les forets
se meurent. La
mondialisation et
l'industrialisation
massiveassociees a
l'avidite predatrice, a
la corruption politique,
aux actions humaines
irrationnelles et au
fosse grandissant entre
riches et pauvres
conduisent notre planete
bleue a se rapprocher
chaque jour un peu plus
du point de non retour.
Cette composition n'est
pas une accusation
acerbe, mais plutot une
exhortation a prendre
soin de cette beaute si
harmonieuse que nous
offre la nature. Et
peut-etre, prendrons-nous
enfin conscience de
l'importance d'une
situation de coexistence
avec la nature,
necessaire pour la survie
de l'espece humaine, et
non d'exploitation qui
conduit a la destruction.

Nordanvind
is a tour de force
symphonic rhapsody that
is built on three
Scandinavian folk songs.
Composer Carl Strommen
has composed these
Viking-influenced
melodies into a concert
setting that brings out
all of the history of the
Scandinavian people. The
piece is at times bold
and aggressive, at other
times beautiful. Carl
employs all of the
instrumental colors of
the concert band to
create a new work for
more advanced
ensembles. Modern
Scandinavians are
descendants of the
Vikings, an adventuresome
people who were known for
their love of the sea,
their naval prowess, and
as fierce fighters . The
Scandinavian Vikings were
warriors from Denmark,
Norway, and Sweden who
traded, raided and
settled in various parts
of Europe, Russia, the
North Atlantic islands,
and the northeastern
coast of North America
.Starting around 1850,
over one million Swedes
left their homeland for
the United States in
search of religious
freedom and open farm
land . Augustana College
was founded in 1860 by
graduates of Swedish
universities and is
located on the
Mississippi River in Rock
Island, Illinois . Home
of the
“Vikings,â€
Augustana College is the
oldest Swedish- American
institution of higher
learning in the United
States . This powerful
and lively piece takes
inspiration from Swedish
history and from Swedish
folk songs and hymns
.Havsdrake (Dragon of the
Sea)The Nordanvind or
“North Windâ€
blows a cold wind during
a journey of a group of
courageous Viking rowers
. The
“Dragon-shipâ€
or long ships designed
for raiding and war was a
sophisticated, fast ship
able to navigate in very
shallow water . To
musically portray these
magnificent seafaring
vessels, the director is
encouraged to use an
Ocean Drum (or a rain
stick) during the
introduction . Wind
players may consider
blowing air through their
instruments to suggest
the North wind . Adding
men’s voices to
accompany the haunting
low brass and percussive
“rowerâ€
sounds can be helpful in
creating the dark and
ominous portrayal of
Viking adventurers
.Slangpolska efter Byss -
KalleIn Sweden, a
“polska†is a
partner dance where the
dancers spin each other
(släng in Swedish
“to sling or
tossâ€) .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is attributed to
Byss-Kalle, who was a
notable Swedish folk
musician, specifically a
nyckelharpa player .
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle is a traditional
“polskaâ€
dance song most often
played on the Nyckelharpa
or keyed fiddle and is
commonly heard in pubs
and at festive events
throughout Sweden .
Approximately 10,000
nyckelharpa players live
in Sweden today, and the
Swedish and the American
Nyckelharpa Associations
are dedicated to this
Swedish National
instrument . The director
is encouraged to share
video and audio examples
of the nyckelharpa
playing the original
Slangpolska efter Byss -
Kalle .Tryggare Kan Ingen
Vara (Children of the
Heavenly Father)Tryggare
Kan Ingen Vara Is a
traditional Swedish
melody, possibly of
German roots, and was
believed to be arranged
as a hymn by the Swedish
hymn writer, Karolina
Wilhelmina Sandell-Berg
(1832–1903) . As a
daughter of a Swedish
Lutheran minister, she
began writing poems as a
teenager and is said to
have written over 1,700
different texts . There
are two different
accounts as to the
inspiration for this hymn
. The first story is that
Lina (as she was called)
wrote the hymn to honor
her father and to say
thank you to him for
raising her and
protecting her . A second
belief is of her
witnessing the tragic
death of her father . She
and her father were on a
boat, when a wave threw
her father overboard . It
was said that the
profound effect of
watching her father drown
is what caused Lina to
write the text to this
hymn . Although this is a
treasured song to people
of Swedish descent
everywhere, it speaks to
all people about a father
tending and nourishing
his children, and
protecting them from evil

Sinfonia
Hungarica is a
three-movement symphony
that depicts the history
of Hungary. All three
movements were inspired
by historical key
figures, wars, and other
important events from
this country. This
symphony is a celebration
of Hungary’s
millennium in 2001.The
final movement is named
after ISTVAN, the King
who introduced
Christianity into Hungary
and who was crowned by
Pope Silvestro II on
January 1, 1001. A rather
solemn start leads to
another war-like passage,
ending with some loud
crashes. This symbolizes
the fact that the body of
the pagan Koppany was cut
into four pieces, and
sent to the four castles
of the country as an
example. After a quiet,
almost
religiousintermezzo, the
National Hymn of Hungary
is introduced. This broad
“grandiosoâ€
ending also has a
symbolic meaning: after
ten centuries, Hungary
has many reasons to look
back on the past with
pride, and to look
forward to the future
with optimism and
confidence.
Die
Sinfonie in drei
Sätzen ist eine
musikalische Schilderung
der Geschichte Ungarns.
Alle drei Sätze haben
bedeutende historische
Persönlichkeiten und
Schlüsselereignisse
aus der Landesgeschichte
- wie etwa Kriege - zum
Inhalt. Das Werk wurde
zuUngarns
Tausendjahrfeier im Jahr
2001
geschrieben.Attila
, König der Hunnen,
oftmals auch die
Geißel Gottes genannt,
ist die zentrale Gestalt
des ersten Satzes; in
seiner musikalischen
Beschreibung sind
Aggressivität und
Grausamkeit, die vonihm
ausgehende Bedrohung und
ihm entgegengebrachte
Furcht spürbar.
Daneben erscheinen das
heroischer klingende
Thema von Buda,
Attilas Bruder, und das
lyrische von Rika,
seiner zärtlich
geliebten Frau. Der
aufpeitschende Schluss
desSatzes ist Sinnbild
für die gefürchtete
Schnelligkeit von Attilas
Truppen, mit der sie ihre
Opfer eingeholt und ohne
Ausnahme getötet
haben.Im Mittelpunkt des
zweiten Satzes steht
Arpad, der
eigentliche Begründer
des ungarischen Staates.
Eineatmosphärisch
klingende Einleitung
beschwört
Emese, die
Großmutter Arpads,
herauf, die im Traum
seine Bestimmung
vorhergesehen hatte. Er
schlug seinen Gegner, den
Prinzen Zalan von
Bulgarien, im Kampf in
die Flucht und gab dem
Land denNamen
Magyarorszag.Das Finale
ist nach Istvan
benannt, dem König,
der in Ungarn das
Christentum einführte
und am ersten Januar 1001
durch Papst Sylvester II.
gekrönt wurde. Ein
feierlicher Anfang leitet
über in einen an
Kriegsgetümmelerinnern
den Abschnitt, der in
lärmendem Getöse
endet. Es steht für
das Ende des Heiden
Koppany, dessen
Körper gevierteilt und
als abschreckendes
Beispiel an die vier
Burgen des Landes gesandt
wurde. Ein ruhiges,
beinahe religiös
wirkendesZwischenspiel
mündet in die
ungarische Nationalhymne.
Dieser prachtvolle, mit
grandioso
überschriebene Schluss
hat auch eine symbolische
Bedeutung: Nach zehn
Jahrhunderten hat Ungarn
guten Grund, mit Stolz
zurückzublicken und
der Zukunft mitZuversicht
und Optimismus
entgegenzusehen.Die
wunderbare Melodie der
Nationalhymne erscheint
in der Sinfonie auch
vorher schon immer
wieder, wird meist aber
ganz oder teilweise
überdeckt. Sie
durchläuft das Werk
wie ein roter Faden, der
anfangs kaumwahrzunehmen
ist und erst im Verlauf
der Sinfonie immer
deutlicher wird. Am Ende
krönt sie das Werk in
einer letzten
prachtvollen Steigerung,
in der das Orchester den
majestätischen Klang
einer Orgel
annimmt.
Sinfonia
Hungarica,
commissionata dalla banda
ungherese di
Kiskunfelegyahaza, è
dedicata al maestro
Ferenc Jankovski, al
sindaco della citt Jozsef
Ficsor e a Gabriella
Kiss. La prima mondiale,
eseguita dalla banda
Kiskunfelegyhaza si è
tenutaa Budapest il 31
marzo 2001 sotto la
direzione del
compositore.Gli eventi
salienti della storia
dell’Ungheria,
come le guerre ed altri
avvenimenti importanti,
sono tradotti in musica
in questa sinfonia
strutturata in tre
movimenti. Sinfonia
Hungaricavuole anche
essere un omaggio allo
stato ungherese che
festeggia il suo
millennio nel
2001.ATTILA, re
degli Unni, spesso
chiamato “il
flagello di Dio“
è la figura centrale
del primo movimento,
caratterizzato dalla
paura, dalla
minaccia,dall’aggr
essione e dalla crudelt .
Buda, fratello di Attila
è associato ad un tema
più eroico, mentre
Rika, l’amata
moglie, è
rappresentata da una
melodia lirica.
L’eccitante finale
di questo movimento di
apertura illustra la
tanto temuta velocit
delle truppe di Attila
che seminavano paura e
morte.Il secondo
movimento pone
l’accento su
ARPAD, il
fondatore dello Stato
ungherese. Inizia con un
passaggio in stile
atmosferico che evoca la
nonna di Arpad, Emese che
aveva sognato e
predettoil futuro del
nipote. Uno degli
oppositori di Arpad, il
principe bulgaro Zalan,
fu cacciato dopo una
battaglia. In seguito,
Arpad chiamò
ufficialmente il
territorio
“Magyarorszagâ€
.Il movimento finale
prende il nome da
ISTVAN, il re che
portòil cristianesimo
in Ungheria e che fu
incoronato da Papa
Silvestro II il 1
gennaio, 1001. Un inizio
solenne prelude ad un
passaggio bellico
accentuato da rumori
imponenti; questo a
simboleggiare
l’atroce fine del
pagano Koppany il cui
corpo futagliato in
quattro pezzi e inviato
ai quattro castelli del
paese come monito. Dopo
un intermezzo quieto,
quasi religioso, viene
presentato l’Inno
nazionale ungherese. In
questo ampio e grandioso
finale riecheggia
l’orgoglio
dell’Ungheria
nelricordare il suo
passato e la fiducia con
la quale si proietta al
futuro.Lo stupendo tema
dell’Inno
nazionale ungherese è
proposto nell’arco
dell’intera
sinfonia. E’
però spesso
parzialmente nascosto e
usato come filo
conduttore, appena
riconoscibileall’i
nizio ma sempre più
ovvio quando la sinfonia
si avvicina al suo
finale. A conclusione
della sinfonia, il
sublime inno conduce la
banda in
un’apoteosi
finale, facendo apparire
l’organico
strumentale come un
maestoso organo.

I n 1803,
President Thomas
Jefferson sent Meriwether
Lewis and William Clarks
Corps of Discovery to
find a water route to the
Pacific and explore the
uncharted West. He
believed woolly mammoths,
erupting volcanoes, and
mountains of pure salt
awaited them. What they
found was no less
mind-boggling: some 300
species unknown to
science, nearly 50 Indian
tribes, and the Rockies.
I have been a student of
the Lewis and Clark
expedition, which Thomas
Jefferson called the
Voyage of Discovery, for
as long as I can
remember. This
astonishing journey,
lasting more than
two-and-a-half years,
began and ended in St.
Louis, Missouri and took
the travelers up more
than a few rivers in
their quest to find the
Northwest Passage to the
Pacific Ocean. In an age
without speedy
communication, this was
akin to space travel out
of radio range in our own
time: no one knew if,
indeed, the party had
even survived the voyage
for more than a year.
Most of them were
soldiers. A few were
French-Canadian voyageurs
hired trappers and
explorers, who were
fluent in French (spoken
extensively in the
region, due to earlier
explorers from France)
and in some of the Indian
languages they might
encounter. One of the
voyageurs, a man named
Pierre Cruzatte, also
happened to be a
better-than-average
fiddle player. In many
respects, the travelers
were completely on their
own for supplies and
survival, yet,
incredibly, only one of
them died during the
voyage. Jefferson had
outfitted them with food,
weapons, medicine, and
clothing and along with
other trinkets, a box of
200 jaw harps to be used
in trading with the
Indians. Their trip was
long, perilous to the
point of near
catastrophe, and arduous.
The dream of a Northwest
Passage proved ephemeral,
but the northwestern
quarter of the continent
had finally been
explored, mapped, and
described to an anxious
world. When the party
returned to St. Louis in
1806, and with the
Louisiana Purchase now
part of the United
States, they were greeted
as national heroes. I
have written a sizeable
number of works for wind
ensemble that draw their
inspiration from the
monumental spaces found
in the American West.
Four of them (Arches, The
Yellowstone Fires,
Glacier, and Zion) take
their names, and in large
part their being, from
actual national parks in
Utah, Wyoming, and
Montana. But Upriver,
although it found its
voice (and its finale) in
the magnificent Columbia
Gorge in Oregon, is about
a much larger region.
This piece, like its
brother works about the
national parks, doesnt
try to tell a story.
Instead, it captures the
flavor of a certain time,
and of a grand adventure.
Cast in one continuous
movement and lasting
close to fourteen
minutes, the piece falls
into several subsections,
each with its own
heading: The Dream (in
which Jeffersons vision
of a vast expanse of
western land is opened);
The Promise, a chorale
that re-appears several
times in the course of
the piece and represents
the seriousness of the
presidential mission; The
River; The Voyageurs; The
River II ; Death and
Disappointment; Return to
the Voyage; and The River
III . The music includes
several quoted melodies,
one of which is familiar
to everyone as the
ultimate river song, and
which becomes the
through-stream of the
work. All of the quoted
tunes were either sung by
the men on the voyage, or
played by Cruzattes
fiddle. From various
journals and diaries, we
know the men found
enjoyment and solace in
music, and almost every
night encampment had at
least a bit of music in
it. In addition to
Cruzatte, there were two
other members of the
party who played the
fiddle, and others made
do with singing, or
playing upon sticks,
bones, the ever-present
jaw harps, and boat
horns. From Lewis
journals, I found all the
tunes used in Upriver:
Shenandoah (still popular
after more than 200
years), Vla bon vent,
Soldiers Joy, Johnny Has
Gone for a Soldier, Come
Ye Sinners Poor and Needy
(a hymn sung to the tune
Beech Spring) and Fishers
Hornpipe. The work
follows an emotional
journey: not necessarily
step-by-step with the
Voyage of Discovery
heroes, but a kind of
grand arch. Beginning in
the mists of history and
myth, traversing peaks
and valleys both real and
emotional (and a solemn
funeral scene), finding
help from native people,
and recalling their zeal
upon finding the one
great river that will, in
fact, take them to the
Pacific. When the men
finally roar through the
Columbia Gorge in their
boats (a feat that even
the Indians had not
attempted), the
magnificent river
combines its theme with
the chorale of Jeffersons
Promise. The Dream is
fulfilled: not quite the
one Jefferson had
imagined (there is no
navigable water passage
from the Missouri to the
Pacific), but the dream
of a continental
destiny.

A lot is known
about the American
composer Leroy Anderson.
This son of Swedish
immigrants played the
piano, organ, accordion,
trombone, tuba and double
bass. He spoke several
languages fluently and
graduated from Harvard
with first-class
honours.While on military
service, the army also
commissioned him to write
a manual on Icelandic
grammar.He already
started writing musical
arrangements as a
student, and from his
30th year arranged and
composed for the Boston
Pops Orchestra. Such
melodiesas Serenata, The
Typewriter, Sleigh Ride
and Bugler�s
Holiday made him world
famous. His best-known
work, Blue Tango, reached
number one in the US
charts in 1952, and it
sold more than a million
copies. In 1975, a year
after hisdeath, he was
given a star at the Walk
of Fame in Hollywood.Most
of his works last no
longer than three
minutes, about the
maximum length of a
single at that time. One
work that lasts longer is
his 1953 Piano Concerto
in C for piano and
orchestra.The first
performance was in
Chicago, conducted by the
composer and with Eugene
List at the piano.
However, after three
performances he was no
longer happy with the
work and withdrew it. He
always intended to revise
it, but never got round
to it. Itwas only in 1989
that the Anderson family
decided to republish the
work.This three-part
composition is on the one
hand characterised by a
careless elegance, but on
the other one can hear
the influence of
Rachmaninoff, Copland,
Gershwin, and
evenBeethoven and Mozart,
as well as the Viennese
classics.Anderson used
the sonata form for the
first movement. It ends
with a cadenza that
carries us on into the
second part (in e minor).
The third part is a
typically cheerful
American folk dance in2/4
time, a so-called Hoe
Down, with a lilting,
lyrical passage as its
middle section. At the
end comes a solo passage
followed by a rapid
close.In this piano
concerto, Anderson
combines a rigidly
classical form of
composition with simple
andappealing themes and
elements from light
music. So this work is a
perfect synthesis of
light music and what is
called serious music, in
the same way as
Gershwin�s
Rhapsody in Blue. A work
that can be played
equally well in a
concerthall, at an
open-air concert or even
a pop
concert.

second part (in e minor).
The third part is a
typically cheerful
American folk dance in2/4
time, a so-called Hoe
Down, with a lilting,
lyrical passage as its
middle section. At the
end comes a solo passage
followed by a rapid
close.In this piano
concerto, Anderson
combines a rigidly
classical form of
composition with simple
andappealing themes and
elements from light
music. So this work is a
perfect synthesis of
light music and what is
called serious music, in
the same way as
Gershwin�s
Rhapsody in Blue. A work
that can be played
equally well in a
concerthall, at an
open-air concert or even
a pop
concert.
Feelings is a
well-known easy listening
hit that was written
halfway through the
1970s, by the Brazilian
singer-songwriter Morris
Albert. However, the
melody is derived from a
French song (Pour toi)
from 1957, written by
Louis Gaste, who made
this claim successfully.
Over the years, Feelings
has been performed by
famous artists like Ella
Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra
and Elvis Presley.
Numerous arrangements
have been made for
various instrumentations.
This arrangement by
Roland Kernen does
justice to the
original.

A stunning
and heart-wrenching
composition based on the
Jewish folk son Shlof,
Mayn Kind. You can
hear the emotional
content pour out of this
piece written in memory
of an outstanding
orchestra director. The
piece beginnings with
original material to set
the tone, followed by
a clarinet solo on the
song. It then develops
through a variety of
different harmonic
presentation before
building to a nice key
change and climatic
moment. The piece ends as
it began, but with a more
hopeful tone. An amazing
piece. Sleep, My Child
was commissioned by the
Madison Middle School
Band and Orchestra in
Tampa, Florida, and is
dedicated to the memory
of their Director of
Orchestras Kevin Frye.
Director of Bands Chris
Shultz championed the
commissioning of this
piece to honor Kevin
after he passed away in
December 2016. Mr. Frye
was a beloved member of
the staff at Madison
Middle as well as the
music community of Tampa
and the state of
Florida. I was a
personal friend of
Kevin’s. We were
in several musical groups
together when we were
young that were formative
to both of our musical
careers. I also guest
conducted his Madison
Middle School Orchestra
several times over the
past four years. His
musicianship, teaching
skills and love for his
students were
exemplary.When taking on
the challenge of writing
a piece to honor
Kevin’s legacy,
Mr. Shultz and I decided
to try and include
several important aspects
of Kevin’s life
into the piece. Kevin was
proudly Jewish, a
fantastic trumpet player
and loved Jazz. With that
in mind, and after a lot
of research, a Jewish
folk song Shlof, Mayn
Kind was selected as the
basis for the piece, not
to be religious, but to
honor his faith and
heritage. Plus it is a
beautiful song, and I
felt the title reflected
the sentiment I was
looking to express, which
is of someone taking rest
after a long battle with
illness. Thus, a lullaby
seemed appropriate.I also
wanted to incorporate
Jazz into the piece, but
in a concert setting, so
you will hear as the
piece develops, the
harmonies of the folk
song expand into ones
found more commonly in
Jazz compositions. Not
in a far out way, but in
a subtle way to again
honor this part of his
life. For example the
climactic moment of the
piece at the fermata in
m. 57 is a Dbmaj9#11
chord. It appropriately
give the piece the angst
that I was looking for at
this moment in the piece,
while honoring the
importance of Jazz in
Kevin’s musical
life.The piece was also
conceived to include both
the Madison band and
orchestra in the
performance at the
premiere. I wanted the
pieces to work separately
by the band and
separately by the
orchestra, but I also
wanted them to be able to
play the piece together
to honor Kevin.The piece
begins with original
material designed to set
the mood of the piece
with a tempo/style
marking of pensive, but
also as material that I
used as connective
musical tissue between
statements of the folk
song. After this
introduction, the folk
song is presented by a
solo violin (or clarinet)
with orchestral
accompaniment in a simple
straight forward
presentation of the song.
This is followed by a
woodwind section
statement of the folk
song accompanied by muted
trumpets. During this
presentation the harmony
starts to expand with
more color notes in the
chords. The low brass are
added half way through
this statement to add
depth and lushness.The
introductory material
returns, but with some
angry hits in the lower
voices. This leads to a
full ensemble state of
new material that is used
to transition to the
climax of the piece, and
to build tension. After
the build, the piece
modulates to a shortened
statement of the folk
song with more advanced
harmonies and an active
counter line in the
violas, horns, saxes and
first clarinets to
further build the
tension. This tension
is released at the
fermata in m. 57, as
mentioned above. After a
thoughtful pause, the
piece concludes with a
completion of the folk
song again with a solo
violin (or clarinet)
followed by a return of
the introductory material
to tie the piece
together. The piece ends
hopeful, with a solo
trumpet (Kevin’s
instrument) that is
dissonant at first, but
then resolves as if to
say - everything will be
OK! It has been my
distinct honor to have
been asked to write this
piece in Kevin’s
memory! I hope that in
some small way the piece
helps to bring comfort to
his family, students,
colleagues and to all
those that knew
him!–Larry

Festival
March is presented in a
new edition arranged by
Richard Summers. It is a
tour de force composition
for advanced bands and
hearkens back to a bygone
era during the golden age
of the band movement.
Directors and students
will hear operatic music
from composer Victor
Herbert who is best known
for his Christmas
classic, Toyland. This
is a richly scored
masterpiece that deserves
to return to standard
status in concert band
repertoire. We are proud
to bring you this new
setting of this cherished
classic. Festival
March by Victor Herbert
was written for the
Pittsburgh Symphony and
first performed under
Herbert’s
direction in Chicago on
Dec. 9, 1901 celebrating
the 12th anniversary
of Chicago’s
Auditorium Theatre. Also
known as the Auditorium
Festival March, he
included it many times
for programs of a
festival nature. The main
theme Auld Lang Syne, a
famous Scottish folk
song, is incorporated
many times along with
brass fanfares,
interludes and march
melodies. This band
arrangement is very
similar to the original
orchestral composition.
The missing string parts,
the addition of the
saxophone section and
other band instruments,
editing of the
superimposed triplets
against
sixteenth notes, to
one or the other, and
articulations suitable
for the band, were major
challenges. The style of
early twentieth-century
American music is
captured here. This
arrangement will give
band musicians access to
a fine piece of music
that could only be
appreciated by orchestra
musicians up to now.
Although suitable for
many occasions, this
piece is a great way to
begin or end a December
holiday concert.
 Notes to the
ConductorVictor
Herbert’s music
can be interpreted in a
romantic style, which is
the conductor’s
responsibility to read in
nuance and musicality.
The beginning and other
triple-tonguing sections
of this piece have a
March of the Toys quality
to it. Â The interludes
and Auld Lang Syne
sections are legato and
musical. The March
sections can also be
shaped musically.About
the ComposerVictor
Herbert was born in
Ireland in 1861 and
raised in Germany. When
he moved to America in
1886, he joined the
Metropolitan Opera as
principal cellist and
eventually composed many
works including
forty-three operettas
on Broadway from the
1890s to World War I,
including Naughty
Marietta and Babes in
Toyland. Victor Herbert
conducted the Pittsburgh
Symphony from 1898 to
1904 and then was the
conductor of his own
Victor Herbert Orchestra.
He formed ASCAP with a
group of composers in
1914 and was the director
until his death in 1924.
Among his thirty-one
compositions for
orchestra, Festival March
was a favorite of his and
was eventually published
by Carl Fischer Music.

Legend has
it that Edith Piaf, one
of the greatest stars of
the French music scene,
was born under a lamp
post in the streets of
Paris and spent much of
her lonely childhood
roaming the streets,
singing here and there in
front of a fascinated
audience. Out of the poor
streets developed a
singer who was to become
the darling of French
cabaret. A Tribute to
Edith Piaf is a wonderful
arrangement for concert
band of four of the most
well known songs of this
romantic, spontaneous,
desperate and everlasting
legend.
Naar
verluidt werd een van de
grootste sterren uit de
Franse muziekwereld onder
een lantaarnpaal in de
Parijse rue de Belleville
geboren. Na een eenzame
jeugd, waarin ze veel
over straat zwierf en
voor mensen zong, werd
Edith Gassionontdekt door
Louis Leplee. Van hem
kreeg ze haar bijnaam, La
mome Piaf (de kleine
mus). A Tribute to
Edith Piaf is een
prachtig arrangement voor
harmonieorkest van Roland
Kernen. Het omvat vier
van de bekendste
chansonsvan deze
tegelijkertijd
romantische, spontane,
wanhopige en
onsterfelijke legende:
Milord, Hymne a
l'Amour, Mon Manege a
Moi en La Vie en
Rose.
Die
Legende um Edith Piaf,
den Spatz von Paris
besagt, dass sie aus
armsten Verhaltnissen kam
und ihre Karriere auf der
Strasse begann. Aus der
armen Strassensangerin
wurde die wohl
beruhmteste
Chansonsangerin aller
Zeiten. A Tribute to
Edith Piaf ist ein
wundervolles Medley fur
Blasorchester von Roland
Kernen aus vier der
bekanntesten Lieder
dieser unsterblichen
Legende.
Le 19
decembre 1915, Paris a vu
naitre sous un lampadaire
de la rue de Belleville
(si l'on en croit la
legende), une etoile de
la chanson francaise.
Enfant delaissee, Edith
Gassion sillonne seule
les quartiers de Paris,
en chantant ici et la
devant un public fascine,
avant d'etre remarquee
par Louis Leplee qui
l'accueille de son
cabaret et qui pose sur
cette voix unique un nom
voue a l'immortalite, la
mome Piaf (FAM. moineau),
symbole de la fragilite
physique du personnage.
Mais du haut de ses 1,47
m, elle seduit le
Tout-Paris de
l'entre-deux guerres puis
cristallise autour d'elle
le public international.
La mome Piaf devient

des intellectuels, l'amie
des grands chansonniers
tels que Maurice
Chevalier, Mistinguett,

River called Spirit Lake.
The legend tells the
story of Chaska, the son
of a Dakota Chief, and
Wetona, the daughter of
Ojibwe Chief Buckado. He
was handsome and she was
beautiful; it
wasn’t long before
they fell in love. This
is a challenging
euphonium solo in which
the versatile soloist can
explore very expressive
melodic sequences, as
well as energetic,
technical
sections.
The
Legend of Spirit
Island werd
geschreven in opdracht
van de het Twin Ports
Wind Orchestra uit
Duluth, Minnesota
(dirigent Mark Whitlock)
als eerbetoon aan
euphoniumspeler Dick
Carlson. De titel van het
werk is afkomstig van een
lokale legende over
Spirit Island, dat dicht
bij Duluth in een
verbreding van de St.
Louis River Spirit Lake
¬ligt. Deze legende
gaat over Chaska, de zoon
van een
Dakota-opperhoofd, en
Wetona, de dochter van
Ojibwe-opperhoofd
Buckado. Hij was knap en
zij was mooi; het duurde
niet lang of de twee
waren verliefd op elkaar.
De uitdagende
euphoniumsolo biedt de
solist de mogelijkheid om
expressieve melodieën
te verkennen en zijn of
haarspeelvaardigheid te
demonstreren.

Titel des Stückes
leitet sich von einer

Die Legende handelt von
Chaska, dem Sohn eines
Dakota-Häuptlings, und
Wetona, der Tochter des

Buckado. Er war gut
aussehend und sie war
schön, und so dauerte
es nicht lange, bis sie
sich ineinander
verliebten. In diesem
anspruchsvollen Stück
kann der Euphonium-Solist
sehr ausdrucksvolle
melodische Sequenzen,
aber auchenergiegeladene,
technische Abschnitte
erkunden.

Sinfonia
Hungarica is a
three-movement symphony
that depicts the history
of Hungary. All three
movements were inspired
by historical key
figures, wars, and other
important events from
this country. This
symphony is a celebration
of Hungary’s
millennium in
2001.ATTILA, King of the
Huns, often named
“The scourge of
God,†is the
central figure of the
first movement, mainly
characterized by fear,
threat, aggression, and
cruelty. Attila’s
brother, Buda, however,
has a more heroic theme,
while his beloved wife,
Rika, has a lyrical
melody. The exciting
ending of this opening
movement illustrates the
dreaded speed of
Attila’s troops:
they pursued their
victims and killed them
all!
Die
Sinfonie in drei
Sätzen ist eine
musikalische Schilderung
der Geschichte Ungarns.
Alle drei Sätze haben
bedeutende historische
Persönlichkeiten und
Schlüsselereignisse
aus der Landesgeschichte
- wie etwa Kriege - zum
Inhalt. Das Werk wurde
zuUngarns
Tausendjahrfeier im Jahr
2001
geschrieben.Attila
, König der Hunnen,
oftmals auch die
Geißel Gottes genannt,
ist die zentrale Gestalt
des ersten Satzes; in
seiner musikalischen
Beschreibung sind
Aggressivität und
Grausamkeit, die vonihm
ausgehende Bedrohung und
ihm entgegengebrachte
Furcht spürbar.
Daneben erscheinen das
heroischer klingende
Thema von Buda,
Attilas Bruder, und das
lyrische von Rika,
seiner zärtlich
geliebten Frau. Der
aufpeitschende Schluss
desSatzes ist Sinnbild
für die gefürchtete
Schnelligkeit von Attilas
Truppen, mit der sie ihre
Opfer eingeholt und ohne
Ausnahme getötet
haben.Im Mittelpunkt des
zweiten Satzes steht
Arpad, der
eigentliche Begründer
des ungarischen Staates.
Eineatmosphärisch
klingende Einleitung
beschwört
Emese, die
Großmutter Arpads,
herauf, die im Traum
seine Bestimmung
vorhergesehen hatte. Er
schlug seinen Gegner, den
Prinzen Zalan von
Bulgarien, im Kampf in
die Flucht und gab dem
Land denNamen
Magyarorszag.Das Finale
ist nach Istvan
benannt, dem König,
der in Ungarn das
Christentum einführte
und am ersten Januar 1001
durch Papst Sylvester II.
gekrönt wurde. Ein
feierlicher Anfang leitet
über in einen an
Kriegsgetümmelerinnern
den Abschnitt, der in
lärmendem Getöse
endet. Es steht für
das Ende des Heiden
Koppany, dessen
Körper gevierteilt und
als abschreckendes
Beispiel an die vier
Burgen des Landes gesandt
wurde. Ein ruhiges,
beinahe religiös
wirkendesZwischenspiel
mündet in die
ungarische Nationalhymne.
Dieser prachtvolle, mit
grandioso
überschriebene Schluss
hat auch eine symbolische
Bedeutung: Nach zehn
Jahrhunderten hat Ungarn
guten Grund, mit Stolz
zurückzublicken und
der Zukunft mitZuversicht
und Optimismus
entgegenzusehen.Die
wunderbare Melodie der
Nationalhymne erscheint
in der Sinfonie auch
vorher schon immer
wieder, wird meist aber
ganz oder teilweise
überdeckt. Sie
durchläuft das Werk
wie ein roter Faden, der
anfangs kaumwahrzunehmen
ist und erst im Verlauf
der Sinfonie immer
deutlicher wird. Am Ende
krönt sie das Werk in
einer letzten
prachtvollen Steigerung,
in der das Orchester den
majestätischen Klang
einer Orgel
annimmt.
Sinfonia
Hungarica,
commissionata dalla banda
ungherese di
Kiskunfelegyahaza, è
dedicata al maestro
Ferenc Jankovski, al
sindaco della citt Jozsef
Ficsor e a Gabriella
Kiss. La prima mondiale,
eseguita dalla banda
Kiskunfelegyhaza si è
tenutaa Budapest il 31
marzo 2001 sotto la
direzione del
compositore.Gli eventi
salienti della storia
dell’Ungheria,
come le guerre ed altri
avvenimenti importanti,
sono tradotti in musica
in questa sinfonia
strutturata in tre
movimenti. Sinfonia
Hungaricavuole anche
essere un omaggio allo
stato ungherese che
festeggia il suo
millennio nel
2001.ATTILA, re
degli Unni, spesso
chiamato “il
flagello di Dio“
è la figura centrale
del primo movimento,
caratterizzato dalla
paura, dalla
minaccia,dall’aggr
essione e dalla crudelt .
Buda, fratello di Attila
è associato ad un tema
più eroico, mentre
Rika, l’amata
moglie, è
rappresentata da una
melodia lirica.
L’eccitante finale
di questo movimento di
apertura illustra la
tanto temuta velocit
delle truppe di Attila
che seminavano paura e
morte.Il secondo
movimento pone
l’accento su
ARPAD, il
fondatore dello Stato
ungherese. Inizia con un
passaggio in stile
atmosferico che evoca la
nonna di Arpad, Emese che
aveva sognato e
predettoil futuro del
nipote. Uno degli
oppositori di Arpad, il
principe bulgaro Zalan,
fu cacciato dopo una
battaglia. In seguito,
Arpad chiamò
ufficialmente il
territorio
“Magyarorszagâ€
.Il movimento finale
prende il nome da
ISTVAN, il re che
portòil cristianesimo
in Ungheria e che fu
incoronato da Papa
Silvestro II il 1
gennaio, 1001. Un inizio
solenne prelude ad un
passaggio bellico
accentuato da rumori
imponenti; questo a
simboleggiare
l’atroce fine del
pagano Koppany il cui
corpo futagliato in
quattro pezzi e inviato
ai quattro castelli del
paese come monito. Dopo
un intermezzo quieto,
quasi religioso, viene
presentato l’Inno
nazionale ungherese. In
questo ampio e grandioso
finale riecheggia
l’orgoglio
dell’Ungheria
nelricordare il suo
passato e la fiducia con
la quale si proietta al
futuro.Lo stupendo tema
dell’Inno
nazionale ungherese è
proposto nell’arco
dell’intera
sinfonia. E’
però spesso
parzialmente nascosto e
usato come filo
conduttore, appena
riconoscibileall’i
nizio ma sempre più
ovvio quando la sinfonia
si avvicina al suo
finale. A conclusione
della sinfonia, il
sublime inno conduce la
banda in
un’apoteosi
finale, facendo apparire
l’organico
strumentale come un
maestoso organo.
